Come Out q the Right Side.

There are many democrats in the
country who opposed the Blair bill
under misapprehension and it is
not eating crow with them to say
so. Many sensible democrats
waived the question in the canvass
aud.voted the straight ticket. We
all wanted democratic victory first
and then we could adjust our opin
ions to suit our tastes. Now comes
the adjusting time. There is no
canvass now and nobody is going
to get beat or get hurt. Let's see
how we stand.
Hundreds opposed it, or waived
it, because they were convinced that
the party was opposed to it. They
mistook the expressions of a few
candidates in Tennessee for demo
cratic doctrine. Every man who
reads now knows that democracy
everywhere else favors it. Tha,
knocks that prop away. You may
with propriety now favor it and
KNOW That you are In line with the
party.
Others opposed it because they
said the government ought to pay
its debts with the surplus. That is
right, and congress thought so and
passed such resolution (Which the
president never signed) and it has
been done as far Us possible. The
debt is not due and the surplus
still accumulates. 1t will be paid
as fast as it falls due. The Blair
bill makes very small dent in the
surplus. The surplus Is nearly 8
hundred millions year while the
Blair bill only proposes to take an
average of seven millions a year

ENJOY LIFE.

What truly beautiful world we live
in! Nature gives US grandeur of noun
tains, glens and oceans, and thousands
of means of enjoyment. We can desire
no better when in perfect health; but

so you see it will not interfere with
the debt paying. A democrat may
consistently conclude now that his
objection has been met.
Others again opposed it because
they thought the federal govern
ment would control the schools,
That is a fatal objection if it is
true. Federal interference could
not be tolerated and the bill would
indeed be Infamous if 1t proposed it.
But honest, now, does it do sof
There is no occasion to twist and
warp its meaning now. 1t does not.
A man who objected on this score
can with consistency say he was
mistaken.
Others opposed it because it was
represented to be unconstitutional.
Now, the discussion of this grave
phase of it is little too deep to be
attempted here, but let US state a
fact and then the reader can be his
own constitutional lawyer: The
government is supporting In atfiu-
ence, clothing, keeping and educa-
ting the children of Geronimo's
band of devils and cutthroat's, and
yet grave statesmen say We cannot
educate our own children. They
deny the power of the government
to appropriate money to educate
our own children but grant it the
power to educate the children of its
enemies. What superb nonsense
ANY of US common fellows can see
through such thin stuff as chat. A
man who opposed the bill on that
ground can with consistency de-
clare he was mistaken.
There is no canvass going on now
and do democrats to get beat, and
so let's get right on this question.
1t is growing in popularity every
day and it is going to pass some
day. Let's get straight in Tennes-
see. Let's all come up like men
and give it an honest consideration.
No man can be accused of incon-
sisteucy. We were trying to serve
the party when some of US opposed
it, but now there is no party con-
test and there is nothing in the OBJ
jections we urged. Let's be honest
about it and decide it on it's merits.
No man can be accused of incon-
sistency who changes his opinions
An NJ
who seeks truth is always open to
conviction and a brave man will
acknowledge his error.

That sounds nicely and is really

cizes Gov. Taylor's message, and
